Guest guest Posted July 23, 2002 Report Share Posted July 23, 2002 Hi, Now that I know what parts of dandelion to use, I want to ask another question. I want to use at least milk thistle and dandelion. Probably burdock root too. I've been told that extracts (I guess, teas qualify for that term) of different herbs need to be prepared (and I think kept too) separately from each other. Is there any truth to that? Or can just combine different herbs together and make a tea? And another question. What would be a safe dosage of dandelion, milk thistle and burdock for a STRONG tea? The strength Dr. Schulze talks about. And while at it, what's the best proportion for these? Should I add anything to this concoction to significantly increase its effectiveness? Thank you Roman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2002 Report Share Posted July 23, 2002 single most addition to enhance effectiveness of this would be to ensure drinking one gallon of water every day. Preferrably one quart of water first thing in the morning b4 any other input soon after waking. And just for icing on top of the cake... start eating two cucumbers every day.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2002 Report Share Posted July 24, 2002 Most of the time it's ok to combine several herbs into one tea. That's an ancient and workable tradition.
